I suggest that he should, it seems somewhat silly to see Jerry in his own room (sometimes at the bottom of the list, out of sight) without VIP. I suspect that he draws enough people to this site to make this a fair suggestion, assuming he is not being paid by the site in cash. Maybe he is getting the same benefits without the VIP(?), but it is still a good idea IMO...

Before someone posts here that I should buy him one, I will note that I can't (for various reasons), though I would be willing to contribute cubits (I have a few thousand) if someone would take them in exchange for buying Jerry/CN said VIP. If others think this is a good idea and would otherwise be willing to chip in cubits to a VIP purchaser, feel free to post below...

Still though, would be proper IMO for the sight to buy him one themselves.

On a related note, I am wondering how much it costs (in dollar terms, for the server/bandwidth) to host a game of chess, say a 1.0 min game and a 30 min game, programming costs aside...

Interesting, but I suspect most people he draws to Chesscube are from his videos, which make no mention of any referral system. Also, I don't recall being asked about referrals when I signed up here, unless this question is asked and a name (instead of a code) is accepted as being a "referral", I doubt Jerry is getting credit for the people he draws here.

That said, his videos are quite popular and therefore likely draw many people to chesscube, and yet Jerry has no VIP.

Insofar as Chesscube (logically, IMO) draws the same connection as I have, I think they should award Jerry a VIP, and probably a years worth at least. It only seems proper that someone of Jerry's worth to this site - and the chess community in general - be recognized as a VIP, especially by a site he effectively promotes.

well he posts his videos in youtube ,,ask him to give the chesscube link(combined with his referral name) in the main comment,and i am sure he will get many more things like ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,for more info see this--------->>http://www.chesscube.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=2341
